Wisconsin's cranberry growers have re-elected two directors to the industry's market order board. Gabriella Liddane of Tomah and Robert Detlefsen from Wisconsin Rapids have been chosen to sit on the panel during the recent mail-in ballot election.
Both producers will serve three-year terms starting September 1.
The seven-member Wisconsin Cranberry Board is responsible for overseeing the collection and use of about $500,000 in assessment fees paid by Wisconsin cranberry growers.
This funding is used to support the cranberry industry through research, education, and promotion of Wisconsin-grown cranberries.
